Our intimate wedding was so perfectly captured by Elle and her team. They documented the day exactly as it was, and I could't choose just one favourite photo if I tried. Elle was such a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process, from moodboard to shoot to album. As a fellow creative I had a very specific vision for my photos, and she went above and beyond to ensure that she delivered on each shot, from reccommending a second shooter, to taking the extra time in order to ensure we hit the mark. The team brought a fun loving energy, which made everyone infront of the camera super comfortable, it honestly felt like they were part of the family! Forever grateful to have our memories captured so incredibly and accurately, we love you Elle! xxx

Searching for a wedding photographer was tough, I spent nights scouring through websites and instagram accounts for someone who is professional, reasonably priced and takes gorgeous, editorial looking photographs. I’m so glad I found Elle, she exceeded all expectations. I had two weddings, one cultural and the other western and she was able to capture both weddings beautifully, going above and beyond to get the perfect pictures. Elle made sure I got all the shots I wanted and even got shots I didn’t know I wanted. She is creative, passionate and dedicated. I have recommended her to all my friends.
